Improving annual reports by improving the readability of footnotes

Article Abstract:

Several software packages are excellent tools to improve the quality and readability of presentation footnotes in annual reports. Decisionware Inc's Rightwriter measures the readability of text using the Flesch-Kincaid Index and offers suggestions to improve the text. The Rightwriter analysis is inserted directly in the text with comments about unnecessary qualifiers, use of jargon, poor grammar, and complex sentences. The original draft of one footnote, the Rightwriter analysis, and a revision based on the analysis are discussed.
